Auburn Crushes Alabama's CFP Hopes in an Iron Bowl for the Ages

What's the only thing twice as ridiculous as an Iron Bowl ending on a kick-six?

How about one in which the deciding moment was Alabama having 12 men on the field?

It was an all-timer of a roller-coaster ride that led to No. 15 Auburn's 48-45 victory over No. 5 Alabama on Saturday. There were nine lead changes, two defensive touchdowns, one incredibly reliable kicker, one less so and a whole lot of Jaylen Waddle, but the end result was that we can eliminate Alabama from the College Football Playoff discussion for the first time since the tournament's inception in 2014.
